Boss BHT3 HT3 BOSS6 garage door remote for 433MHz OL4 and BOL4 openers
Which Boss motors this 433MHz remote operates
This replacement transmitter is made for Boss garage door motors running on 433MHz, covering the OL4, BOL4, OL6 and BOL6 opener models. It stands in for the BHT3, BHT-3, HT3 and BOSS6 handsets, so if one of those remotes came with your door, this unit is the matching spare. The important exclusion is frequency: it does not operate Boss motors on 303MHz, which generally means openers installed before 2014. If your installation dates from that earlier period, the Boss Garage Door Remote Control 303MHz BHT4 is the version to look at instead, since it is built for the older frequency rather than the current 433MHz platform.
How to confirm your handset matches before ordering
Boss produced remotes that look alike but behave differently, so a visual check saves a return. The giveaway on this model is the clear plastic border that surrounds the buttons; handsets without that border are a different design and will not pair with the same receivers, even though the case shape seems familiar. The second product image shows a side-by-side comparison worth studying for a moment. Beyond the button border, make sure your original remote is among those pictured and that your motor's model number appears in the compatibility list. Two minutes of checking the sticker on your opener head unit removes nearly all the guesswork.
What arrives in the package and related Boss options
The package contains the compatible remote, a key ring and a battery, so it can be coded to your opener straight away without a trip to the shops. Households running Boss or Steel-Line equipment on the BHT4 platform have separate options: the Boss Guardian Steel-Line 2211L BHT4 garage remote suits Guardian and Steel-Line 2211L installations, while the Boss Steel-Line BHT4 2211-L TX garage door remote covers the 2211-L TX handset family. Keeping a spare coded transmitter in the house or a second car is a cheap safeguard, because losing a sole garage remote usually means being locked out of the most convenient entrance to your home.

Frequently asked questions
Will this remote work with my Boss motor on 303MHz?
No. This remote only operates Boss motors on 433MHz, covering the OL4, BOL4, OL6 and BOL6 openers. Motors on 303MHz, which generally means units installed before 2014, need the separate 303MHz Boss remote instead. Check the sticker on your opener head unit or your installation paperwork to confirm which frequency your motor uses before ordering.
How do I know if this BHT3 style remote matches my original?
Look closely at your current handset. This design has a clear plastic border around the buttons, and remotes that look similar without that border are not compatible. The listing's second image shows a comparison of the two. As a final check, confirm your original remote is pictured and your motor model number, such as OL4 or BOL6, appears in the compatibility list.
Does the remote come with a battery and key ring?
Yes. The package includes the compatible remote, a key ring and a battery, so there is nothing extra to buy before coding it to your opener. That makes it practical as an immediate replacement for a lost handset or as a spare for a second driver, since you can start the pairing process as soon as the parcel arrives.
How quickly will my order arrive in Australia?
All items are dispatched within 24 hours of ordering. Standard delivery within Australia typically takes 1–5 working days, while New Zealand orders take 2–8 working days. If the remote does not suit your opener once it arrives, a 30-day return policy applies, and you can contact support at contact@theremotefactory.com.au for assistance with returns or compatibility questions.
